India's Surprise Shooting Down Of A Satellite Was A Warm-Up To Its Imminent Mission To Land On Moon

There's a space race going on in Asia. China's Chang'e-4 has been on the surface of the moon's far side since January and Israel's Beresheet probe is preparing to land. India's shooting down of a satellite this week has dominated space news, but it's a mere precursor to its plans to land on the moon itself in the next few months. So why is nobody talking about Chandrayaan-2? Here's everything you need to know.

What is 'Mission Shakti'?

The Chandrayaan-2 ("moon vehicle") mission comes in the wake of Mission Shakti, India's test-firing of a rocket that shot down one of its own weather satellites while it orbited Earth at 17,000 miles per hour. That's something only achieved before by the U.S., China, and Russia. However, this controversial landmark moment for India is going to be quickly surpassed when Chandrayaan-2 lifts-off during April.

Russia Demands 10 Major VPNs Censor Content or Face Ban

Affected providers include NordVPN, VyprVPN, and TorGuard. If they fail to comply within 30 days, the Russian regulator has threatened to block internet access to their services.

The Russian government is demanding that 10 major VPN services connect their services to a state content-filtering system or face a ban.

On Thursday, Russia's telecommunications regulator, Roskomnadzor, announced it had sent notices to companies demanding they fall in line with Russian law, including NordVPN, ExpressVPN, VyprVPN, TorGuard, and Hide My Ass.

If the VPN providers fail to comply within 30 working days, the Russian regulator has threatened to block internet access to their services.

In 2017, Russia passed a law cracking down on VPNs, which can be used to circumvent online censorship by accessing servers in other countries. It requires VPN providers to register with Roskomnadzor and block access to websites the government has banned. Those who refuse will be blocked.

Note To Beto: There Is No Impending Climate Refugee Crisis

Beto O’Rourke is an example of a snowflake teenager growing up thinking he knows everything about anything that is, in actuality, a big nothing-burger. There is no impending refuge crisis and never has been. Beto is simply reading old scripts from the United Nations. ⁃ TN Editor

This Tuesday, the newest entrant to the 2020 Democratic presidential field, Beto O’Rourke, warned on his first campaign stop in New Hampshire of a mass refugee crisis when “some of the countries in the Western hemisphere are no longer habitable by human beings.” The notion that climate change is causing forced migration all around the world is bogus, and O’Rourke would be well advised to avoid commenting on a subject he plainly hasn’t studied very closely.

The notion of mass climate refugees is usually traced to a 1993 book by British environmentalist Norman Myers, who somewhat magically produced the figure of 200 million climate refugees to get the debate going. Prominent Norwegian peace scholars Nils Petter Gleditsch and Ragnhild Nordås have said “it is generally recognized that this figure represents guesswork rather than a scientifically-based estimate.”

ICYMI: Mueller’s collusion delusion: US media is furious their president isn’t a Russian spy (VIDEO)

The dysfunction in American politics has reached the bizarre stage where there is visible anger that President Donald Trump didn’t collude with Russia to take the office.

Russiagate has been a fixture in the news for two years, where the media sold a story that it wasn’t a case of ‘if’ but ‘when’ Special Counsel Robert Mueller would find evidence to prove that Trump was Moscow’s man in the White House.

Unfortunately, Mueller wasn’t playing ball and – having taken the unprecedented approach of considering facts and not wishful thinking – he concluded that there was no evidence of collusion to be found.

So ICYMI looks at how America is dealing with the fact that Trump may have been elected because people thought he was the best option.

Ben Santer works for US government as a climate scientist at Lawrence Livermore National Lab. Santer originally worked at the University of East Anglia's climate science lab, which is notorious for pushing questionable papers, and which occupies a dirty Martel tower with grouty tiling on a rundown midlands campus. (see pic)

East Anglia climate labs has reputation a dirty as the cylindrical building they inhabit for fudging the numbers to make papers "Clearer than the truth."

>Santer was the convening Lead Author of Chapter 8 of 1995 IPCC Working Group I Report (AR2 WGI), which addressed the global warming issue.

>Frederick Seitz, in a June 12, 1996 editorial-page piece in the Wall Street Journal complained that alterations made to Chapter 8 of the 1995 IPCC report were made to "deceive policy makers and the public into believing that the scientific evidence shows human activities are causing global warming." Similar charges were made by the Global Climate Coalition (GCC), a consortium of industry interests; specifically, they accused Santer of "scientific cleansing."

Notable: Major QAnon Presence At Trump Rally In Michigan

Major QAnon Presence At Trump Rally In Michigan

The bizarre, baseless conspiracy theory known as QAnon has a lot of tenets, but one of the main ones has always been (per Vox) has always been that Special Counsel Robert Mueller was not so much pursuing the Russia investigation, but rather was secretly working with President Trump to defeat a cabal of pedophiles, centered on Hollywood and the Democratic Party.

The completion of the Mueller Report, and the brief summary released by Attorney General William Barr last Sunday, has disappointed a lot of Trump opponents who were hoping for exposure of wrongdoing by the president. But what’s known so far about the Mueller findings hasn’t exactly vindicated the QAnon worldview, either.

Judging by their presence at President Trump’s rally in Grand Rapids, Mich., Thursday night, this development has not caused the QAnon crowd to lose faith.

According to multiple reporters covering the rally, there was a major QAnon presence both inside and waiting to get into Trump’s Grand Rapids rally.

“I’ve been covering Qanon for a year, and the amount of pro-Q people in this video from yesterday’s Trump rally line in Grand Rapids is absolutely shocking,” reporter Ben Collins of NBC News tweeted from the rally Thursday, while sharing a video of dozens of rally attendees in line, many of whom shouted out QAnon-related slogans. Collins also followed someone at the rally who walked the entire line while holding a “make noise for Q” sign, to cheers.

Reporter Will Sommer of The Daily Beast also shared photos from the rally, of lots of attendees wearing QAnon shirts and carrying signs.

The QAnon theory centers on an anonymous message board poster who claims to be a high-level Trump Administration functionary. In cryptic messages, the QAnon author or authors implies high-level conspiracies among politicians and other famous people, often inviting adherents to interpret the messages as they see fit.

At the core of the theory is an ill-defined “Deep State” is conspiring against President Trump and his goals, and that Trump is working to defeat them, possibly through mass arrests at some ill-defined point in the future.

The president doesn’t appear to have ever acknowledged QAnon, although adherents of the theory have met with him in the White House, and Trump Thursday night tweeted a photo from the rally that included several “Q” posters.

“So many things in American society had to fail for this many people to believe one party is run by an actual Satanic cabal that eats children, and Trump, Jesus and Bob Mueller are secretly ending it,” Collins, the NBC reporter, tweeted after the rally.

Vietnam War Veterans Day

By a fellow Anon

As a US Army Veteran who served post-Vietnam (1976-79) and as a Journalist MOS 71Q in the Public Affairs Office at Fort Sam Houston, TX, (BAMC) Brooke Army Medical Center under the direct command of General Andre J. Ognibene, I came to know and interview many of the brave men and women who served during one of the most controversial WARS our country then called a 'Conflict'.

Our country was divided, protests were daily. These men and women were bitterly opposed, spit on, and terribly degraded on a daily basis. They have long deserved the respect of the American People for the bravery they showed and the mental and physical scars they hold. They served proudly and with honor only to return to a country filled with public ridicule.

I am a woman who received one of the last Women's Army Corp (WAC) Athena Insignia as the changing of the guard came about, integrating women into taking men's basic training, I have witnessed, first hand, the faces and heard many of the stories of these brave men and women as they lay on hospital beds in unbearable pain. They gave selflessly, for God and Country, and bore the scars of an ungrateful country. I don't know which is worse, the mental or the physical. Perhaps I never will. I know I will never forget.

Thank you to our Commander in Chief, President Donald J. Trump for enacting the National Vietnam War Veterans Day official holiday set aside on March 29th, 2017 to honor our fallen soldiers, those that came home with broken spirits, those that continue to this day to honor their oath of service to the Country that we love and would fight and die for. The oath does not end when we leave military service. It is a lifetime commitment.

Today we remember the Prisoners of War (POWs), the Missing In Action (MIA’s) and those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for their Country and fellow Americans. And let us not forget the families and loved ones who stood behind our beloved servicemen and women so that we might be free. God Bless America and thank you to all those who have, are, and will stand their post to insure the freedoms, we so often take for granted, will be there for future generations. This Anon is grateful.

FLY YOUR FLAG PATRIOTS! FLY THEM HIGH AND PROUD! For too long I have wanted to say these things…. GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

Long but good article now these

U1 Bad Guy.

Another connection is Giustra, the director of UrAsia Energy Ltd, a British Virgin Islands offshore company registered in May 2005.

The company wanted to “conduct uranium exploration, development, production and marketing operations and related activities in Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan,” according to a draft of the shareholders’ agreement.

UrAsia, based in British Columbia, Canada, finalized a deal in September 2005 to buy uranium mines for $500 million in Kazakhstan, according to published reports.

The deal came after Giustra joined Bill Clinton in Kazakhstan for the launch of a Clinton Foundation health initiative and dined with him and Kazakhstan’s president, among others. The timing prompted questions about whether Bill Clinton played any role in the agreement. Giustra denied that, saying it came after months of negotiations.

The following year, Giustra, who is also involved in filmmaking and founded Lionsgate Entertainment, made a donation of more than $30 million to the Clinton Foundation, according to published reports.

In total, Giustra has committed $100 million to the foundation, according to at least one report, though foundation records don’t give an exact amount, saying only that he is one of the largest individual donors giving more than $25 million. In 2007, he started an affiliated charity that bears his name and initially kept its donors secret despite a 2008 agreement between the Clintons and the Obama administration to make public foundation contributors.

Bill Clinton has flown around the globe on Giustra’s plane, sometimes with him, including to Kazakhstan.

Messages left for Giustra on his cell phone and by email and at several of his companies were not returned.

Former fugitive billionaire Marc Rich’s name doesn’t appear in the Panama Papers, but his company does. The Bahamas offshore Industrial Petroleum Limited was registered in 1992, established by the commodities firm Glencore International in Switzerland, inactivated in 2001.

The allegations against Rich, who died in 2013, ranged from tax evasion to trading with Iran despite bans to selling oil to South Africa’s apartheid government. He fled to Switzerland in 1983, but before the pardon, his ex-wife Denise made a $450,000 donation to Clinton’s presidential library in Little Rock.

Rich’s business partners appear in the data too. And they also give generously to the Clinton Foundation.

Sergei Kurzin, a Russian engineer and investor, appears in a draft shareholders agreement in partnership with Giustra in the British Virgin Islands offshore UrAsia Energy Ltd. Kurzin worked closely with Rich in the 1990s looking for opportunities in the former Soviet Union when it was opened to mining and oil investment.

Kurzin, who has given the Clinton Foundation between $50,000 and $100,000, appears in the Panama Papers as the director and chairman of various oil companies. Kurzin was also a partner in the uranium deal involving Giustra.

In a 2009 interview with Forbes, the British-Russian dual citizen boasted of giving generously to a Clinton-Giustra initiative, noting: “I wrote a check for a million dollars. I don’t think you can call it a small amount.”

Messages left for Kurzin were not returned this weekend.

Also in the Panama Papers is an offshore company in the British Virgin Islands called Echo Art Limited. Caline Ronald Chagoury is the sole director and shareholder. She is the daughter of Ronald Chagoury and niece of Gilbert Chagoury, a pair of powerful Nigerian-born Lebanese businessmen who founded the Chagoury Group, which includes one of Africa’s more important construction companies. They also own the Eko Hotel, a five-star luxury resort in the Nigerian capital of Lagos.

The Mossack Fonseca records associated with Echo Art use the same Lagos address as the Chagoury Group headquarters. Caline Chagoury’s LinkedIn profile shows she runs an art management company called Echo Art, which operates a gallery at the family hotel. Phone calls and emails over two days to Caline Chagoury were not returned.

Spygate: The Inside Story Behind the Alleged Plot to Take Down Trump

Efforts by high-ranking officials in the CIA, FBI, Department of Justice (DOJ), and State Department to portray President Donald Trump as having colluded with Russia were the culmination of years of bias and politicization under the Obama administration.

The weaponization of the intelligence community and other government agencies created an environment that allowed for obstruction in the investigation into Hillary Clinton and the relentless pursuit of a manufactured collusion narrative against Trump.

A willing and complicit media spread unsubstantiated leaks as facts in an effort to promote the Russia-collusion narrative.

Top UAE official says Palestinian state 'no longer feasible', calls for closer ties with Israel

A top Emirati official has said that a two-state solution to Israel and Palestine was no longer possible, as he called for closer ties with Israel in an interview in Dubai.

Anwar Gargash, minister of state for foreign affairs, mirrored statements from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump as he dismissed the longstanding two-state solution that until recently was the official policy of Arab Gulf states.

"A two-state solution will no longer be feasible because a sort of reduced rump state will no longer be practical," he said in conversation with UAE newspaper the National.

The top Emirati official called for dialogue and closening ties with Israel at an event in Dubai, and criticised Arab states' historic decision to boycott Israel over its persecution of Palestinians and colonisation of neighbouring lands.

“Many, many years ago, when there was an Arab decision not to have contact with Israel, that was a very, very wrong decision, looking back,” Gargash said.

“Because clearly, you have to really dissect and divide between having a political issue and keeping your lines of communication open.”

The UAE, along with the other Arab Gulf countries, have no official diplomatic relations with Israel, but recent years have seen Israel grow closer to Saudi Arabia, UAE, Bahrain and Oman as their regional and financial interests overlap, especially in relation to Iran.

Reports have shown how Saudi, Emirati and Bahraini authorities have relied on Israeli spyware to target the mobile phone of members of civil society, often ending in activists' incarceration.

Israeli athletes have also recently travelled to Gulf Arab states in recent months to participate in international competitions, and Gargash predicted the trend to increase.

However, he also said a deeper "strategic shift" would take place, with positive consequences for the Palestinians.

"What we are facing, if we continue on the current trajectory, I think the conversation in 15 years’ time will really be about equal rights in one state," he said.

He added that the trajectory would shift so that in "10 to 15 years, the discussion will be what is the nature of the Israeli state, what are the rights of the Palestinians within that Israeli state, should they be equal citizens, is it sustainable that they are not equal citizens?”

BUSTED: Kim Foxx Admits She FAKED Recusing Herself From Jussie Case - Big League Politics

Cook County prosecutor Kim Foxx did not actually recuse herself from the Jussie Smollett case as she claimed. Foxx’s office was forced to make this admission when confronted with the fact that a real recusal would require putting a special prosecutor in charge, not just a Foxx assistant.

“The state’s attorney did not formally recuse herself or the office based on any actual conflict of interest,” stated her communications officer Tandra Simonton.

Thus, Foxx faked recusing herself to get the pressure off her back for her text messages with Tina Tchen, the former Michelle Obama chief of staff.

One America News Network (OAN) ran a segment Wednesday covering Hungarian-born progressive billionaire George Soros’ six-figure spending to put Kim Foxx in office as the prosecutor in Cook County, Illinois in 2016.

Billionaire Sackler family sued by second US state over opioid 'catastrophe'

The billionaire owners of Purdue Pharma have been sued by New York state for allegedly triggering a US addiction epidemic with their marketing of the Oxycontin painkiller, just two days after the company agreed to pay $US270 million ($NZ398m) to settle similar claims by Oklahoma.

The amended complaint adds the embattled Sackler family to the state's lawsuit against Purdue and its biggest competitors and distributors, including Johnson & Johnson and Cardinal Health. New York says the defendants pushed doctors to issue prescriptions, lied about the risk of addiction and ignored red flags from suspicious pharmacies.

"Simply put, they put profit over patients," New York Attorney General Letitia James said on Thursday (Friday NZ time) at a press conference in Manhattan announcing the new claims. The Sacklers "profited off the suffering, the death of New Yorkers", she said.

The suit in New York state court, which James said is the most extensive of its kind in the US, adds to the potentially massive legal liability that has led Purdue to threaten filing for bankruptcy.

U.S., China resume trade talks in Beijing after 'productive working dinner'

BEIJING (Reuters) - U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said on Friday he had a “productive working dinner” the previous night in Beijing, kicking off a day of talks aimed at resolving the bitter trade dispute between the world’s two largest economies.

Mnuchin and U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer were in the Chinese capital for the first face-to-face meetings between the two sides in weeks after missing an initial end-of-March goal for a summit between U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping to sign a pact.

“We had a very productive working dinner last night, and we are looking forward to meeting today,” Mnuchin said as he left his hotel to meet with Chinese Vice Premier Liu He, who is due to visit Washington next week to continue the talks.

Mnuchin did not elaborate and it was not immediately clear with whom he had dined on Thursday night.

Nestle to face lawsuit saying Poland Spring water not from a spring: U.S. judge

(Reuters) - A federal judge on Thursday rejected Nestle SA’s bid to dismiss a revised lawsuit claiming that it defrauded consumers by filling bottles of its Poland Spring water with ordinary groundwater. U.S. District Judge Jeffrey Alker Meyer said consumers from eight northeastern states may pursue claims that Nestle Waters North America deceived them into overpaying by labeling Poland Spring as “100% Natural Spring Water.” The New Haven, Connecticut-based judge allowed claims on behalf of consumers from Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island. He said federal law preempted claims from Vermont consumers. Nestle Waters had argued there was “no fraud” because its water met the various state requirements. Meyer had dismissed an earlier version of the lawsuit last May.

“We remain highly confident in our legal position and will continue to defend our Poland Spring brand vigorously against this meritless lawsuit,” a Nestle Waters spokeswoman said in a statement on Thursday. “Poland Spring brand natural spring water is just what it says it is — 100 percent natural spring water.” Lawyers for the plaintiffs did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

According to the amended complaint, Nestle Waters sells 1 billion gallons of Poland Spring a year in the United States, and “not one drop” of its water “emanates from a water source that qualifies as a genuine legal ‘natural spring.’” The actual Poland Spring in Maine, which the defendant’s labels said is a source of Poland Spring water, “commercially ran dry” nearly 50 years ago, the complaint said.

In his earlier dismissal, Meyer said the plaintiffs were trying merely to enforce guidelines for spring water under the federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, and that this preempted their state law claims. But in Thursday’s decision, he said he was “convinced” the plaintiffs would try to show only that Poland Spring water did not meet the states’ individual spring water standards, though they appeared to “mirror” the federal standard.

The case is Patane v. Nestle Waters North America Inc, U.S. District Court, District of Connecticut, No. 17-01381.

Watch: Rocket Lab launches US military satellite from Māhia Peninsula

https://www.msn.com/en-nz/news/national/watch-rocket-lab-launches-us-military-satellite-from-m%C4%81hia-peninsula/ar-BBVb4z8?li=BBqdk7Q&ocid=oie9fvrt

‘Rocket Lab is preparing to launch an experimental satellite for the US military.

The launch will take place using an Electron rocket from the launch site in Māhia, New Zealand. It's expected to lift-off at 12.27pm.

Its payload is the Radio Frequency Risk Reduction Deployment Demonstration (R3D2) satellite. It belongs to the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, or DARPA, the Pentagon agency in charge of developing cutting-edge military technology.

DARPA says the R3D2 will "monitor antenna deployment dynamics, survivability and radio frequency (RF) characteristics of a membrane antenna in low-Earth orbit".

"The antenna could enable multiple missions that currently require large satellites, to include high data rate communications to disadvantaged users on the ground," officials wrote in a statement.

The DARPA R3D2 mission is Rocket Lab's fourth orbital mission and the company's first launch in 2019.

"The mission highlights US government demand for the type of responsive, ultra-flexible and rapidly acquired launch service that characterises the Rocket Lab launch experience on Electron," Rocket Lab says.

Rocket Lab founder and CEO Peter Beck says small satellite launch capabilities are increasingly important to US government organisations like DARPA.

"The ability to rapidly space-qualify new technology and deploy space-based assets with confidence on short notice is a service that didn't exist for dedicated small satellites until now," he says.

"We're honoured to provide Electron's agile and flexible launch service to DARPA and we look forward to delivering the innovative R3D2 payload to orbit."

But some experts warn that the launch might create risks to New Zealand's national security.

"An opponent of America could see New Zealand as a more vulnerable area in which to target indirectly America's space programme or defence program," Massey University Centre for Defence and Security Studies lecturer Terry Johanson told The Spinoff.

"For example, Russia, North Korea or China could potentially undertake operations here to sabotage the American defense programme."’

Michelle Obama's Ex-Chief Of Staff Admits She Did Try To Intervene In Smollett Investigation

After evidence came to light that the former chief of staff of Michelle Obama had attempted to intervene on behalf of the Smollett family to get the investigation turned over to the FBI, the ex-aid, prominent Chicago attorney Tina Tchen, has now gone on the record to confirm that she did contact the state's attorney whose office eventually let Smollett off the hook.

In a statement to USA Today on Wednesday, Tchen addressed reports that she had emailed Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx to request on behalf of the Smolletts that the investigation be taken out of the hands of the Chicago Police Department, which would eventually conclude that Smollett had orchestrated an alleged "hoax" hate crime against himself.

"I know members of the Smollett family based on prior work together," Tchen said in the statement Wednesday. "Shortly after Mr. Smollett reported he was attacked, as a family friend, I contacted Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx, who I also know from prior work together. My sole activity was to put the chief prosecutor in the case in touch with an alleged victim’s family who had concerns about how the investigation was being characterized in public."

After Tchen contacted Foxx to voice the Smollett family's "concerns" about how the Chicago police were handling the case, Foxx replied in a February 1 email: "Spoke to the Superintendent [Eddie] Johnson. I convinced him to reach out to FBI to ask that they take over the investigation."

"Spoke to the superintendent earlier, he made the ask," Foxx told a Smollett family member whose name was redacted from released court documents. "Trying to figure out logistics. I’ll keep you posted."

"Omg this would be a huge victory," the relative replied.

"I make no guarantees, but I’m trying," responded Foxx.

Foxx later told the Chicago Sun-Times that the Smollett family was concerned about leaks to the media and believed the FBI would keep a "tighter lid on the information."

Though Foxx said she recused herself from the case because of her contact with Tchen and the Smollett family, it was revealed this week that she did not in fact do so. As the Daily Wire's Emily Zanotti reported, Foxx was forced to admit an "egregious error" late Wednesday, "after National District Attorney's Association issued a scathing letter rebuking Foxx's office for their conduct during the Smollett affair":

Lawsuit Seeks Documents Potentially Showing FBI Ignored Intelligence Community IG Evidence That Chinese Hacked Clinton’s Server

A congressman described a meeting in which Intelligence Community Inspector General (ICIG) officials informed FBI agent Peter Strzok they had discovered Hillary Clinton’s private email server was hacked by a foreign power.

Strzok acknowledged meeting with the investigators but claimed he didn’t recall what they told him. The FBI said it had no evidence of such a breach, but has not explained what, if anything, it did to look for one based on the ICIG’s lead.

Judicial Watch is suing to force the government to produce records showing what the ICIG found.

Sources said the ICIG had detailed knowledge of a China-affiliated group hacking Clinton’s server.

The watchdog group Judicial Watch is suing the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) to produce records detailing the FBI response to warnings that then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s email server had been compromised by a foreign power.

The Intelligence Community Inspector General (ICIG) found that Clinton’s server was compromised with malware that caused every one of Clinton’s emails to be copied to a foreign entity, according to a congressman on the House Judiciary Committee.

In July 2018, during the committee’s questioning of Strzok, Republican Texas Rep. Louie Gohmert described a meeting in which named members of the ICIG staff met with Strzok. He said they informed Stzrok of “an anomaly they had found on Hillary Clinton’s emails that were going to the private unauthorized server that you were supposed to be investigating.”

“It was going to an unauthorized source that was a foreign entity unrelated to Russia,” Gohmert said.

Following in the footsteps of her mother, Lauren Salzman has decided to plead guilty rather than go to trial in the case of the U.S. v. Raniere Et Al.to one count each of Racketeering and Racketeering Conspiracy.

Lauren’s plea was done “under seal” in order to keep the details from becoming known by other defendants in the case, some of whom are also engaged in plea deal negotiations.

Washington, D.C. – After prosecutors dropped charges against actor Jussie Smollett in the case of an alleged Chicago hate crime hoax, members of the Project 21 black leadership network are condemning the situation as a crass display of “celebrity privilege” harmful to both race relations and the reputation of the law enforcement community. Project 21 continues to maintain that the NAACP should drop its nomination of Smollett for an honor at its upcoming Image Awards ceremony.

“This case stands for one clear proposition – regardless of color. In America today, people of wealth and privilege can escape accountability for the same acts that mainstream Americans cannot,” said Project 21 Co-Chairman Horace Cooper. “This deal stinks, and it makes a mockery of the idea that all Americans are equal before the law.”

The storm is intensifying and a tidal wave of justice is coming.

Rand Paul: “Source” Says Obama Admin Sent Spies to “Entrap Trump Officials”

Kentucky Senator Rand Paul (R) said that a source informed him that the Obama intelligence community sent spies into the Trump campaign to try to “entrap Trump officials.”

Speaking to Fox and Friends this morning, the Senator said, “Well my source tells me that the intelligence community, Obama’s intelligence community, Brennan, Clapper, Comey, they were frustrated because they had this Russian dossier but no one believed it was real. It wasn’t verifiable, they couldn’t get anything out of it, so they sent spies into the Trump campaign, they tried to entrap Trump officials to admit they were working for Russia, that wasn’t working.”

Paul explained that the officials were “frustrated” that media outlets wouldn’t take the dossier seriously because of its salacious and unverifiable content, so they ultimately attached it to President Obama’s intelligence report.

The Senator called the dossier situation a “big circle” explaining, “They’ve had the dossier for months and months, so when John McCain is given the dossier its given to him by people who may have leaked it from our government to John McCain so John McCain could give it back to the FBI…”

Yesterday, Paul tweeted an explosive allegation, claiming his source told him former CIA Director John Brennan “insisted that the unverified and fake Steele dossier be included in the Intelligence Report…Brennan should be asked to testify under oath in Congress ASAP.”

Prosecutors say Avenatti wanted in on NY sex-slave case

NEW YORK (AP) — An already bizarre case accusing a secretive self-help group in upstate New York of engaging in sex-trafficking took another strange turn Wednesday thanks to firebrand attorney Michael Avenatti and a courtroom scene caused by a wealthy defendant he's tried to represent.

At a hearing in federal court in Brooklyn, prosecutors confirmed that Avenatti appeared on behalf of liquor fortune heiress Clare Bronfman at a closed-door meeting last week that also included Mark Geragos, another high-profile lawyer representing Bronfman.

When U.S. District Judge Nicholas Garaufis asked Geragos whether he and Avenatti had told prosecutors Avenatti was being brought into the case, he responded, "That's exactly what happened."

The revelation came only two days after Avenatti, the lawyer best known for representing porn actress Stormy Daniels, was arrested on charges accusing him of trying to extort millions of dollars from Nike. He wasn't in court Wednesday and didn't immediately respond to messages seeking comment.

Geragos has been linked to the Nike case by reports naming him as the unidentified co-conspirator mentioned in court papers. Asked outside court Wednesday if he was cooperating in the case, he said no, but declined comment on whether he was the alleged co-conspirator.

Bronfman, a daughter of the late billionaire philanthropist and former Seagram chairman Edgar Bronfman Sr., has pleaded not guilty to charges accusing her of bank-rolling a cult-like organization that brainwashed and branded women who served as sex slaves for its spiritual leader.

Under stern questioning by the judge Wednesday about which lawyers are actually representing her and whether she knew if Geragos was involved in the Nike case, Bronfman turned pale, staggered away from the bench and collapsed into a chair. An ambulance was called, but she later left the courthouse on the arm of Geragos.

The judge adjourned the hearing but told lawyers Bronfman would need to come back to court Thursday to give some answers.

"You're going to tell me who the lawyers are," he said. "You're going to tell me when they were retained."

Notable: Tesla loses its head of growth and referral program

Tesla loses its head of growth and referral program

Tesla’s head of growth and the executive behind the automaker’s owner referral program has left the company this week, according to sources talking to Electrek.

We reported on Praveen Arichandran back in 2016 when Tesla hired him from Facebook in order to build a growth team for the company.

Arichandran holds degrees in economics and computer engineering from the University of Waterloo.

According to his LinkedIn profile, he started his career at AMD and after a stint at BMO, he joined Facebook in 2011 and held several roles in the company’s growth team until joining Tesla in January 2016. At just 25 years old, he was Tesla’s youngest executive at the time.

At Tesla, he was Director of Growth Programs, which included overseeing the owner referral program, which was recently briefly canceled before being launched again earlier this month.

The referral program was extremely successful in generating sales for Tesla, but it got a bit out of control when Model 3 was added to the program. Tesla ended up having to give away over 80 new Roadsters for free and give significant discounts on many more new supercars.

CEO Elon Musk cited high costs when shutting down the program earlier this month and the team relaunched it with much more reasonable prizes just a week ago.

Sources familiar with the matter told Electrek that Arichandran quit Tesla this week. He has a new job lined up to be announced shortly.

He is the latest in a series of Tesla executives to leave lately, like VP of Engineering in charge of powertrains Michael Schwekutsch and CFO Deepak Ahuja, among dozens more over the last year.

To be fair, the turnover rate is fairly high in Silicon Valley and even more so in the sectors that Tesla operates in.

Tesla has yet to respond to a request for comment and Arichandran has declined to comment until his position at the new company is announced.

'''Texas Rangers Hall of Fame pitcher John Wetteland was indicted on three charges of aggravated sexual assault of a child Thursday.

John Karl Wetteland(Denton County Sheriff's Office)'''

(Denton County Sheriff's Office)

Wetteland, 52, was arrested in mid-January after a relative accused him of forcing them to perform sex acts on him three times beginning in 2004, when the child was just 4 years old.

It happened twice more in the next two years at Wetteland's home in Bartonville, about 10 miles south of Denton, the accuser told police.

The Dallas Morning News generally does not identify those alleging sexual assault.

Bartonville police arrested the Trophy Club resident on a charge of continuous sexual abuse of a child on Jan. 14. He was released on $25,000 bond the same day.

The Texas Department of Family and Protective Services referred the case to Bartonville police on Jan. 9, Chief Bobby Dowell said. Bartonville police issued a warrant for Wetteland's arrest, which the Denton County Sheriff's Office served.

The News has not been able to reach Wetteland for comment, and he does not have an attorney listed in court records.

Wetteland pitched with the Los Angeles Dodgers, Montreal Expos and New York Yankees — with whom he was named the 1996 World Series MVP — before joining the Rangers in 1997. He retired after the 2000 season and was inducted into the Rangers Hall of Fame in 2005.

Wetteland coached for the Rangers in the early 2000s, then joined the Washington Nationals in 2006. The Rangers said in January that they have no current association with Wetteland.

He also coached baseball and taught Bible classes at Liberty Christian School in Argyle from 2007 to 2008, but has not had any association with the school since, vice president of advancement Dedra Brynn said.

Supreme Court Finds Investment Banker Following Orders Culpable

WASHINGTON—An investment banker who sent deceptive emails to prospective clean-energy investors greatly overstating a company’s financial health can’t escape responsibility for securities fraud because he was only following his supervisor’s directions, the Supreme Court ruled March 27.

Justice Stephen Breyer wrote the 6-to-2 majority opinion in Lorenzo v. SEC, rejecting the reasoning employed by Justice Brett Kavanaugh, when he was a member of the lower court panel that previously heard the case.

“By sending emails he understood to contain material untruths, [the petitioner] ‘employ[ed]’ a ‘device,’ ‘scheme,’ and ‘artifice to defraud’” within the meaning of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules, and “engage[d] in a[n] act, practice, or course of business” that “operate[d] … as a fraud or deceit.”

The court rejected Lorenzo’s argument that as the mere “disseminator” of false information he had “not primarily violated” the rules.

“That is not what Congress intended. Rather, Congress intended to root out all manner of fraud in the securities industry. And it gave to the Commission the tools to accomplish the job.”

The case arose out of the business of Waste2Energy Holdings Inc. of Neptune Beach, Florida, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2013.

In 2009, investment banker Francis V. Lorenzo of Staten Island, New York-based Charles Vista LLC emailed would-be investors in an effort to sell $15 million in debentures secured only by Waste2Energy’s earning capacity.

The emails presented Waste2Energy as having $10 million in assets and more than $40 million in purchase orders, but when the emails were sent, the company acknowledged an audit had found its assets weren’t even worth $400,000.

Lorenzo’s boss and firm settled with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) but Lorenzo refused and an administrative law judge found he had broken the law by sending the emails, even though he hadn’t drafted them. The SEC banished Lorenzo from the securities industry for life and fined him $15,000.

A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit rejected Lorenzo’s appeal in 2017.

US Has No Intention of Taking No-First-Use Nuclear Stance - Pentagon Official

Deputy Under Secretary of Defense David Trachtenberg says implementing such a policy would undermine US allies’ faith in Washington’s resolve to come to their aid, possibly forcing them to make nuclear weapons of their own.

The United States does not want to implement a no-first-use nuclear policy, because the Pentagon believes such a stance would put into question Washington's willingness to protect its allies and its own vital interests, Trachtenberg told a hearing before the House Armed Services Committee on 28 March.

Trachtenberg said that the United States has for decades maintained a policy of "constructive ambiguity" regarding the employment of nuclear weapons, which has "deterried potential adversaries from nuclear coercion or aggression."

"A policy of ‘no-first-use' would undermine US extended deterrence and damage the health of our alliances because it would call into question the assurance that the United States would come to the defense of allies in extreme circumstances," he said, according to a transcript published on the committee's website.

"'No-first-use' is highly unlikely to be believed by our adversaries, but, even if it were, it is more likely to embolden them to test what they might perceive as weakened US resolve to defend our allies and vital interests with every means at our disposal than it is to promote peace," he added.

Having taken over in October 2016 after his predecessor stepped down amid the scandal, Chief Executive Officer and President Timothy J. Sloan has informed the board of his decision to retire from the company, effective June 30, and to step down as CEO, president and board member immediately.

An external search process will now begin for the new CEO and President, but the Board has elected C. Allen Parker as interim CEO and President.

Under so much pressure and negative political pressure, it is perhaps no surprise that Sloan has stepped down.

Wells Fargo & Company (NYSE: WFC) announced today that Chief Executive Officer and President Timothy J. Sloan has informed the Company’s Board of Directors of his decision to retire from the Company, effective June 30, 2019, and to step down as CEO, president, and Board member effective immediately. The Board has elected C. Allen Parker, who served as the Company’s General Counsel, as interim CEO and President (and member of the Board), effective immediately. An external search process will now begin for the Company’s new CEO and President.

Wells Fargo Board Chair Betsy Duke said, “Tim Sloan has served this Company with pride and dedication for more than 31 years, including in his role as CEO since October 2016. He has worked tirelessly over this period for all of our stakeholders in the best long-term interest of Wells Fargo. His decision, and today’s announcement, reflect that commitment and his belief that a new CEO at this time will best position the Company for success.”

Notable: The translator at the TT meeting

The Trump Tower meeting used to set up Trump, Don Jr, and Eric Kushner was initiated on the ruse that a Russian lawyer, Natalia Veselnitskaya, had dirt on Hillary Clinton that could be used to help during Trump's 2016 campaign.

Natalia Veselnitskaya, a Russian national, had previously received temporary visas to enter and work in the US as an attorney. These were usually approved by the Justice Department (which makes sense for legal work). However, for her first attempt to enter US before the Trump Tower meeting, her visa request was refused by the Justice Department. So then she had to get approval through the State Department. This is where Secretary of State, John Kerry, came in. The State Department approved her visa.

Furthermore, the translator Veselnitskaya brought to the Trump Tower meeting had a long history of working closely with the State Department. He also worked very closely with Obama, Hillary Clinton and John Kerry.

If Veselnitskaya was going to bring dirt on Hillary to the Trump campaign, why would she bring a translator who worked very closely for the highest profile Dems and also for Hillary herself? This would open up the possibility for the word to get out about her assisting Trump. Of course, this particular translator was used by the conspirators to ensure that the Russiagate storyline could be controlled by all the players in the meeting.

Although the TT meeting (conspiracy) was unraveled long ago for what it was, I'm not sure the connection to John Kerry and the State Department has been emphasized. He was in on the coup in many way probably, but we know for sure that he gave assistance that was necessary to let the Russian spy, Natalia Veselnitskaya, who was also a Clinton/DS spy into the country.

What other work was John Kerry doing to undermine Trump's credibility with foreign nations during the election? We know he's been on a public worldwide smear campaign of DJT. What other roles did he play? – was he a conduit for the fraudulent FVEY intelligence that was used to develop the dossier? Did he coordinate the conspiracy with the FVEY intelligence agencies, or with foreign government officials he had come to know as Secretary of State? What other illegal activities has he probably been up to this whole time?

McConnell sets stage for 'nuclear option' to change rules on judges

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) filed a procedural motion Thursday to set up a rules change in the Senate next week that will speed up votes to confirm President Trump’s nominees to federal district courts and sub-Cabinet-level executive branch positions.

McConnell filed cloture — a motion to cut off dilatory debate — on a motion to proceed to Senate Resolution 50, which would dramatically reduce the amount of time Trump’s nominees have to spend on the floor and let Republicans confirm more of his picks.

The resolution would reduce the amount of floor time that must elapse between when the Senate votes to invoke cloture on a nominee and when a final vote is held from 30 hours to 2 hours.

“I come to the floor to discuss the unprecedented obstruction that has faced President Trump’s nominees for the past 26 months and counting and to announce the Senate is going to do something about it,” McConnell said on the floor.

McConnell’s action Thursday sets up a vote next week on what would be a permanent standing order to reduce debate time for district court and most executive branch nominees. It needs 60 votes to pass.

Senate Republicans say if Democrats stop the resolution from getting 60 votes, they will go ahead with the nuclear option, a controversial tactic used to set a new Senate precedent, and essentially rewrite the Senate rules, with a simple majority vote.

It’s called the nuclear option because it’s viewed as a drastic escalation of partisan warfare.

“The status quo is unsustainable for the Senate,” McConnell said. “It’s unfair to this president and the future presidents of either party. It cannot stand… it will not stand.”

Republicans control 53 seats while Democrats hold 47 seats, which means McConnell needs at least 50 senators to vote for the nuclear option, assuming that Vice President Mike Pence will break a tie in his favor.

At least three Senate Republicans, however, say they haven’t yet decided whether to vote for a rules change by simple majority: Sens. Susan Collins (R-Maine), Cory Gardner (R-Colo.) and Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska).

Collins and Gardner face re-election next year in states that Hillary Clinton won in 2016.

Collins said she had not yet made a decision and is meeting with her staff “to find out the specifics on it.”

Shock Claim: Clinton Team Hatched ‘Blame Russia’ Plan Within 24 Hours Of Loss – Resulted In 675 Day Mueller Investigation

The narrative that eventually spawned the Mueller investigation was concocted in a gloomy room littered with discarded Shake Shack containers in November 2016. Even though Hillary Clinton had delivered a concession speech the day before, Clinton and her team were not ready to give up yet, and so they needed a strategy to de-legitimize the election results. They eventually decided on a plan to “blame Russia” for Hillary’s loss, and that included really pushing a narrative that the Trump campaign had colluded with the Russians to defeat Clinton. As this plan was rolled out, this narrative was eagerly embraced by pro-Clinton members of federal law enforcement agencies, and it ultimately resulted in the 675 day Mueller investigation. Robert Mueller issued nearly 2,800 subpoenas and conducted 500 witness interviews, and in the end he found that there was no collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russians…

“The investigation did not establish that members of the Trump campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities,” Mueller wrote in the report, according to Barr’s letter, which he sent to the chairmen and ranking members of the Senate and House Judiciary Committees.

Barr also said that the special counsel, which consisted of 19 lawyers, found no evidence “that any U.S. person or Trump campaign official or associate” conspired or “knowingly coordinated” with Russian efforts to use social media platforms to spread disinformation during the 2016 campaign. Nor did Trump associates conspire with Russians in the efforts to hack Democrats’ emails and disseminate them online.

Of course there wasn’t any collusion, because it was just a made up story by the Clinton campaign team that snowballed out of control.

Needless to say, President Trump is absolutely thrilled by the outcome of the investigation, and now he is calling on law enforcement to “look at the other side”…

“It’s a shame that our country had to go through this. To be honest it’s a shame that your president had to go through this for – before I even got elected, it began. And it began illegally. And hopefully somebody is gonna look at the other side. This was an illegal takedown that failed, and hopefully somebody is going to be looking at the other side.“

Devin Nunes 'prepared now' to deliver criminal referral after Trump vows to release FISA documents

Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., said Thursday his team is "prepared now" to submit a criminal referral to the Justice Department focusing on the origins of the Trump-Russia investigation. The ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee has been teasing a referral for months, and earlier this week he predicted its delivery by the end of next week. During an interview on Fox Business, Nunes said there will be one referral to start, and possibly more to follow, after President Trump said Wednesday he plans to release the unredacted Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrants that jump-started the Russia probe.

"My major concern now is that the FBI and DOJ falsely claimed that this investigation didn’t begin until late July," Nunes told anchor Maria Bartiromo. "We now know for certain that that’s not true, we’re still trying to get to the bottom of that. Of course there are still documents that need to come out, but we are prepared and are now drafting a criminal referral … we wanted to wait until the Mueller report came out so that we could just — if there was anything in there that might be of interest, but I think we’re prepared now to at least submit our first criminal referral." He said he thinks this referral would "grab everybody that we need to grab to make sure that there’s a proper investigation done," but noted there may be more to "to supplement" the first.

Nunes has not named anyone who could appear in a referral, but he has railed against what he says is collusion between the Democrats and the Russians, pointing to use of the unverified Trump dossier by the FBI to obtain FISA warrants to spy on onetime Trump campaign official Carter Page as proof of an unraveling operation to undermine the president. That dossier, compiled by British ex-spy Christopher Steele, was funded in part by Hillary Clinton's campaign and the Democratic National Committee.

Testimony from DOJ official Bruce Ohr, who served as an unofficial backchannel between Steele and the FBI, which was made public this year confirmed that top Justice Department officials knew about the dossier earlier than first thought, and that among those who knew was Andrew Weissmann, who went on to become the top deputy of special counsel Robert Mueller. “Some of the biggest challenges that we had is because they used our counterintelligence capabilities — these secret capabilities that are really only supposed to be used to go after terrorists and other bad guys, they actually turned it on a political campaign, and that’s where they first went wrong," Nunes told Bartiromo, while talking about a "DOJ and FBI run amok.” "Now, my estimation is they used what’s called ‘counterintelligence’ because they could keep it siloed and hidden from the American people and from the rest of FBI and DOJ … they opened up a counterintelligence investigation into the Trump campaign because they could use these secret capabilities," he added. "Then, of course, we all know the story about how they went to the FISA court, they mislead the FISA court, lied to the FISA court in order to get a warrant on a Trump campaign associate so that they then could get a bunch of emails, phone calls, and records into the campaign."

Mueller concluded his nearly two-year-long Russia investigation and sent his final report to the Justice Department. Attorney General William Barr shared a summary of Mueller's report to Congress on Sunday that said Mueller's team found no collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia. Mueller also declined to determine whether Trump obstructed justice, and Barr said he and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein concluded there was insufficient evidence to show the president committed a crime. Nunes had said he wanted to see what was in Mueller's report before taking criminal referral action. Although Congress has not seen the full report, and Democrats are demanding its release within a week, a Justice Department official told Reuters that Barr plans to make public a version of it within "weeks, not months." Nunes has looked to Barr, who on Feb. 14 became attorney general, to make headway toward completing an investigation begun last year by a joint GOP-led task force comprising the Judiciary Committee and the Oversight Committee. Key to this effort, which has been bolstered by intelligence panel Republicans, is investigators looking over roughly 15 transcripts of interviews conducted by the task force last year.

U.S. Projected to Add 1.5M Illegal Aliens to Population this Year

The United States is projected to add about 1.5 million illegal aliens to the American population by the end of the year, should current rates of Catch and Release, border crossings, and visa overstays pan out.

This year, the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Catch and Release policy — whereby border crossers and illegal aliens are readily released from federal custody into the interior of the U.S. — is on track to release roughly 434,000 border crossers and illegal aliens into the country by the end of the year. This projection is based on current estimates that more than 36,000 border crossers and illegal aliens have been released from DHS custody every month since the beginning of the year.

Additionally, Princeton Policy Advisors researcher Steven Kopits projects that in 2019, there will be up to 500,000 illegal aliens at the southern border who successfully cross into the U.S. undetected by Border Patrol agents. These are foreign nationals whom federal immigration officials are unaware of and are usually only deported after they commit a crime in the U.S.

Also, should visa overstay levels continue at the same pace as in Fiscal Year 2017, there could potentially be about 630,000 illegal aliens added to the U.S. population after overstaying their visas.

Center for Immigration Studies Director of Policy Jessica Vaughan told Breitbart News that experts predict there to be anywhere between 300,000 to 400,000 visa overstays this year.

These projections put the number of illegal aliens added to the U.S. population at around one to 1.5 million, on top of the 11 to 22 million illegal aliens who are already living across the country. This finding does not factor in the illegal aliens who will be deported, die over the next year, or leave the U.S. of their own will. As DHS data has revealed, once border crossers and illegal aliens are released into the country, the overwhelming majority are never deported.

For example, while the Trump administration has increased deportations, there continue to be only about 95,000 deportations of illegal aliens living in the U.S., as the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) continues to not have the capacity to handle the enormous, and growing, illegal population.

Meanwhile, U.S. taxpayers are crippled with the burden of absorbing the 11 to 22 million-strong illegal population. In terms of healthcare costs, illegal aliens and their U.S.-born child c0st the American taxpayers about $17 billion a year. Annual illegal immigration costs American taxpayers $116 billion.

The nation’s Washington, DC-imposed mass legal and illegal immigration policy — whereby at least 1.5 million unskilled foreign nationals are admitted to the U.S. every year — is a boon to corporate executives, Wall Street, big business, and multinational conglomerates, as America’s working and middle class have their wealth redistributed to the country’s top earners through wage stagnation.

Research by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine has discovered that immigration to the country shifts about $500 billion in wages away from working and middle class Americans toward new arrivals and economic elites.

Illegal immigration under the Trump administration this year is projected to surpass every year of illegal immigration levels that the Obama administration oversaw, as Breitbart News has noted. Kopits, the Princeton Policy researcher, expects there to be 775,000 border crossings alone this year. This would be a level of illegal immigration at the U.S.-Mexico border not seen since President George W. Bush was in office.

Notable: Marketfag Update: Analysts claim inverted yield curve = peaked stock market

MARKET SNAPSHOT: This Time, An Inverted Yield Curve Suggests The Stock Market Has Already Peaked, Some Analysts Say

(some sanity returning to fin media?. Usually it's just brushed off as an 'event' that has no bearing on anything based in realty….it does)

(marketwatch via mkt screener)

3 of past 7 recessions have seen stocks peak before recession takes hold

Slowing economic growth and an inverted yield curve has many investors worried about a potential recession in the next year or two, but also has them excited for the heady stock-market returns that have often been sandwiched between an inverted yield curve and the subsequent economic downturn.

(what you need to factor in is that the rates trending down do not necessarily translate into lower rates on your mortgage, car loan etc.)

But some analysts and economists are warning that statistical averages can be misleading, and that there is reason to believe that the latest yield curve inversion signals returns for the rest of year will be tepid at best and that the stock-market top may already be in.

(Overall trading volumes have been well-below average for several months and the same today)

Oliver Jones, market economist for Capital Economics told MarketWatch that while it is sometimes the case that stocks continue to deliver strong returns for many months after a yield curve inversion–as they did in the lead-up to the 2007 stock-market peak–it is by no means the rule, and already weakening economic data suggests that equity investors won't be so lucky this time around.

"We already see evidence of payroll growth slowing, retail stales beginning to weaken and less U.S. demand for imports, at the same time that we're seeing signs of a corporate earnings slowdown," Jones said, arguing that these weren't traits the economy displayed at the time of the 2006 yield curve inversion.

An inverted yield curve is a situation where short-term interest rates sit at or above long-term rates, a dynamic in the government-debt market that can be a precursor to an impending recession, as it indicates investors believe that growth will be weak.

On Friday, the yield on the 10-year Treasury note fell below the yield on the 3-month T-bill . An inversion of the 10-year/3-month curve is the most reliable indicator of potential recession, according to researchers at the San Francisco Fed, having preceded the past seven such downturns.

Others have argued that stocks are likely to repeat a pattern that's seen stocks, on average, gain ground in the months after the curve initially inverts – a phenomenon they attributed in part to investors reallocating to equities in response to lower yields, as well as a typically more accommodative stance by the Federal Reserve.

ADAM SCHIFF

A Stone-cold Traitor Guilty of Spearheading

a Highly Organized Conspiracy to Commit Treason and Overthrow the POTUS

Schiff is also guilty of fomenting war with Russia based on a patently false pretext and bogus accusations!

Very few understand that Russiagate was a highly organized Deep State conspiracy conducted by the Democrat Party to overthrow President Donald Trump and to start the hot phase of World War III with Russia.

KEY POINT: Members of the Global Intelligence Community know that Russiagate was actually coordinated by British Intelligence in order to provide the countless American co-conspirators plausible deniability. In this proper context, Russiagate is just the latest of countless plots to subvert the American Republic conducted by the British-domiciled Black Nobility. See CROWNGATE: THE GREATEST CRIMINAL CONSPIRACY IN U.S. HISTORY

Toward that end, Congressman Adam Schiff was selected early on to spearhead this unparalleled act of treason and outright warmongering form his high perch in the U.S Congress.

Exactly why was Adam Schiff chosen to do the dirty deeds? Here’s why:

“You talk about compromised and easily coerced.

Shifty Schiff is nothing but a political hitman who’ll

do anything his hidden masters tell him to because

they have that much dirt on him. No Congressman

will ever expose themselves as much as Schiff has

unless they have been bribed or blackmailed to.

And oftentimes it’s a combination of Pedogate

blackmail and irresistible bribery that keep them

doing their dirty deeds.”

Russia to keep military in Venezuela despite U.S. criticism

March 28 (UPI) – Russia said Thursday its military personnel will remain in Venezuela indefinitely as a diplomatic rift develops between the Kremlin and the United States over the cash-strapped nation. The military will remain there "as long as the Venezuelan government needs them," Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said Thursday. "It all is being done based on bilateral agreements," she added.

Two Russian airplanes carrying 99 military personnel landed in Caracas this weekend. U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo called Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on Monday to warn that Washington "will not stand idly" and criticized "the continued insertion of Russian military personnel" in Venezuela, a country reeling from economic and political instability.

On Wednesday, U.S. President Donald Trump asked Russia to "get out" of Venezuela. For its part, the Russian government suspects the United States of routing humanitarian aid through the nearby Dutch island of Curacao as a pretext to have its military deliver the goods.

"We've taken note of the agreement signed between the Netherlands and the United States on using the infrastructures of the Curacao island for humanitarian supplies to Venezuela," Zakharova said, according to the state-run TASS news agency. "At first sight this agreement merely opens access for U.S. officials to Curacao's infrastructures exclusively for providing humanitarian aid, but, as it has turned out, this deal does not rule out the possibility of using not only civilian but other means of delivery. Of what type? Clearly, military ones."

Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has blamed a widespread blackout that struck the country on March 7 on a cyberattack originating from Houston, Texas, although no evidence has been presented to support the claim. Maduro said Wednesday night that a "brutal terrorist attack" on the country's electricity system was responsible for the latest blackout, the third to hit the country month, El Nacional reported. Businesses and schools will continue to be closed until Friday, amid ongoing electricity problems.

Juan Guaido, the opposition leader recognized by nations including the United States as Venezuela's interim president, blames the electrical problems on corruption. He has called for people to protest in the streets once again on Saturday. Maduro is supported by the military as well as recognized as legitimate president by nations including Russia, Mexico, China, Cuba and North Korea. Guaido is recognized by the United States as well as most Latin American and European countries.

Notable: US to build military base on Lebanon’s coast

U.S. Is Planning To Establish Military Base On Lebanon’s Coast – Report

The U.S. is planning to establish a military base in the Lebanese coastal town of Behdaidat in order to “monitor and deter” its enemies in the region, the Lebanese al-Joumhouria newspaper reported on March 27.

U.S. Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, personally inspected Behdaidat, which is located in the district of Jbeil, on March 23. During the unusual visit, Pompeo committed a half million U.S. dollars for the renovation of a historical church in the town. According to al-Joumhouria, this money could buy half of the 10km2 town’s properties.

Pompeo heavily criticized Hezbollah in the course of his recent visit to Lebanon. The senior diplomat called the Lebanese party a terrorist group and accused it of working to take over the country.

“Lebanon and the Lebanese people face a choice: bravely move forward as an independent and proud nation or allow the dark ambitions of Iran and Hezbollah to dictate your future,” Pompeo said during a press conference in Beirut on March 22, according to New York Times.

Experts told al-Joumhouria that that the strategic location of Behdaidat could allow the U.S. to monitor the coastal line and several alleged supply routes of Hezbollah. The experts predicted that if the base was indeed established, it would be only a part of a network of new bases that could cover a large part of Jbeil.

Al-Joumhouria’s claims remain unconfirmed. However, Hezbollah and its allies control the majority of the Lebanese Parliament seats. This means that they should be able to stop any US attempt to establish military bases in the country, at least by a legal way.

8 members of billionaire Sackler family added to N.Y. opioid suit

March 28 (UPI) – The state of New York is suing members of the billionaire family behind the manufacture of the opioid painkiller OxyContin, arguing they profited from the drug at the expense of patient safety. New York Attorney General Letitia James announced the suit Thursday, which adds eight members of the Sackler family to the suit against OxyContin maker Purdue Pharma. It says the family played a large role in creating the opioid crisis through deceptive marketing about the drug's dangers. Such marketing dates back to the mid 1990s, when the painkiller was introduced, the suit says.

The crisis has led to "widespread addiction, overdose deaths, and suffering," James said in a statement. "We found that pharmaceutical manufacturers and distributors engaged in years of deceptive marketing about the risks of opioids and failed to exercise their basic duty to report suspicious behavior," she added. "As the Sackler Family and the other defendants grew richer, New Yorkers' health grew poorer and our state was left to foot the bill." The suit says the family, which bought Purdue in the 1950s, used a web of corporate entities to funnel company funds to themselves – maneuvers James called fraudulent, as the company was unable to pay debts. Purdue, which has long produced narcotic pain medications including fentanyl and codeine, introduced OxyContin in 1996.

The suit expands the complaint against Purdue to add the eight Sacklers, five other opioid manufacturers and four prescription drug distributors as defendants. The action is based on long-running investigation in New York. Richard Sackler, Jonathan Sackler, Mortimer Sackler, Kathe Sackler, Ilene Sackler Lefcourt, David Sackler, Beverly Sackler and Theresa Sackler are members of the family added to the suit.

Prosecutors say the opioid epidemic has harmed New York due to "fraud, willful misconduct, and gross negligence" of distributors who bought the drugs in bulk and shipped them to pharmacies, despite "red flags." The warning signs included a large number of cash payments for prescriptions and some providers charged unlawful prescribing. The suit also says manufacturers followed deceptive marketing "playbook" that promoted the drugs falsely as non-addictive and masked signs of addiction. New York has spent many millions of dollars to treat addiction and phony claims for opioid prescriptions, authorities said. Tuesday, the state of Oklahoma reached a $270 million agreement with Purdue to settle a suit that accused the company of facilitating the opioid crisis. Purdue, which denied wrongdoing in the settlement, faces nearly 2,000 lawsuits over the matter, which it said could lead to bankruptcy.

Supreme Court declines to block national bump stock ban

March 28 (UPI) – The Supreme Court on Thursday declined to block the Trump administration's ban on bump stocks while lawsuits against the measure make their way through lower courts. The high court denied the request by a group of plaintiffs led by gun advocacy group Gun Owners of America.

Bump stocks increase a gun's rate of fire by using the recoil to have the gun fire continuously, nearly converting a semi-automatic weapon into a fully automatic machine gun. With a bump stock, some guns can fire between 400 and 500 rounds per minute. The devices have been opposed by lawmakers and President Donald Trump since the October 2017 Las Vegas shooting, in which Stephen Paddock used one to fire more than 1,000 rounds at concertgoers. He killed 58 people.

Since the Las Vegas shooting, the Justice Department has evaluated existing laws against automatic weapons and in December interpreted the law to also ban bump stocks. A ban on the devices went into effect earlier this week.

"We still feel that the regulation is a factual misreading of the statute, and that ultimately we will be vindicated on it," Michael Hammond, legislative counsel for Gun Owners of America, said of the challenge. Gun Owners of America has led the charge against bump stock ban with lawsuits in Washington state, Ohio, Utah and Michigan. The organization estimates more than 500,000 Americans own bump stocks. A federal court in Cincinnati also denied the group's request for a preliminary injunction.

The Trump administration asked the Supreme Court not to block the bump stock ban. "Every Court to rule on a request to preliminarily enjoin the rule has determined that a preliminary injunction is unwarranted," Solicitor General Noel Francisco said in a filing.

Photo: Contributed / Brookfield Police Department

On December 14th 2012 Adam Lanza attacked students and adults at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut with an AR-15 rifle leaving 20 children and 6 adults dead.

There have been two recent news stories related to the Adam Lanza case.

One concerns the unethical behavior of Lanza’s former psychiatrist, Dr. Paul Fox.

The second story describes a court’s attempt to determine who is responsible for this tragedy.

Did Lanza’s Former Psychiatrist Hide Evidence?

On December 17, 2012 Connecticut police reached Dr. Fox to interview him about the Adam Lanza case. The psychiatrist had moved to New Zealand after things had gotten a bit hot for him in the Northeast.

Just six months earlier, the 59 year old psychiatrist had been accused of sexual assault of a female patient while practicing as a psychiatrist in Brookfield, Connecticut. The patient in question was 19 years old, and state records show that Fox prescribed her “three to four” psychiatric drugs and also gave her free samples. The girl’s mother stated her daughter “was turning into a zombie.”

Following this accusation, Dr. Fox voluntarily gave up his license to practice in New York and Connecticut and began working as a psychiatrist in New Zealand, almost 9,000 miles away from his former office.

During the phone call with the Connecticut police, Fox stated that the only records he had brought to New Zealand were billing records and that all of his medical records pertaining to clients he treated in the United States were “currently in storage in the United States.”

Twenty-four hours after that phone call, Dr. Fox contacted the Connecticut police, telling them that any medical records pertaining to Adam Lanza had been destroyed. Based on the investigative records, Fox last saw Lanza in 2007, which means Dr. Fox destroyed Lanza’s psychiatric records two years earlier than the law allows.

Notable: Border Patrol Shuts All Checkpoints In New Mexico

Federal authorities have shut down all highway Border Patrol checkpoints in New Mexico, re-allocating agents to deal with the influx of migrants from south of the border.

The checkpoints—all within 100 miles of the border—are meant to be a last line of defense against people seeking to enter the U.S. illegally.

That safety net has now been compromised.

“We were told to go ahead and close down all the checkpoints,” one official told Texas Monthly anonymously. “It’s really out of control, it’s bad.”

A total of six checkpoints have been closed, including all five in New Mexico, and one in West Texas, according to the Albuquerque Journal.

‘Unprecedented’ Border Security Crisis

The move comes after U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CPB) officials announced in a press conference Wednesday extraordinary steps being taken in response to “an unprecedented humanitarian and border security crisis.”

Unusual new measures include re-assigning up to 750 Customs and Border Patrol Officers from ports of entry along the southwest border, who “will soon be supporting Border Patrol with care and custody of migrants.”

“The United States Border Patrol (USBP) continues to apprehend illegal alien families and unaccompanied children in steadily increasing numbers. To process and ensure appropriate care for those in custody, resources including personnel have been diverted from other border security priorities,” a CBP spokesperson stated on Monday, according to the Texas Tribune.

“This shifting of resources and personnel will have a detrimental impact at all Southwest border ports of entry,” the CBP said in a statement. “CBP will have to close lanes, resulting in increased wait times for commercial shipments and travelers.”

Immigration officials were cited by the Texas Tribune as saying that resources from the checkpoints are “intended as a temporary measure.”

‘Overwhelming the Entire System’

Earlier, U.S. Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Kevin K. McAleenan told a press conference in El Paso that a dramatic increase in illegal crossings along the Southwest border was a major strain on law enforcement resources.

“The surge numbers are just overwhelming the entire system,” McAleenan said on March 27, according to the El Paso Times.
